Epidemiology of uterine myomas and clinical practice in Spain: An observational study

The most frequent symptoms reported by women diagnosed with uterine myomas were heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic or abdominal pain and dysmenorrhea; QoL was impaired reflecting high symptom distress. We found that surgery was the main therapeutic approach to manage uterine myomas in Spain. Both surgical and non-surgical treatments achieve relevant improvements in symptom severity and quality of life.
